they are definitely making it happen,some of the other pages were related to flash stem to drive a tesla turbine and blade spacings for steam (different for air). I had read some stuff previously that said a minimum of 60 psi, but one of the articles looked like the guy was getting sluggish performance at 30-40psi steam. a lot of stuff in there related to collector dishes and troughs too.
cool sites, thanks.

I have an old 6 ft sat dish, I wonder if it's big enough to play with.. most of what they start with is like 10-12ft. I was thinking broken mirror pieces cemented and orientated correctly might do it, but I could be totally wrong. any ideas on mounting mirrors on a dish? The troughs look more appealing from a simple point of construction and materials needed. they suggested temps 300-400f for something like 15ft long.
